Kingtiger Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 So in the release notes it didnt say to much about the CV9040, the tracks has recieved 3D tracks, some alternal termal texture etc... SO HECK IF I WAS HAPPY WHEN I OPENED IT UP! 1. New exterior 3D model that are sexy as hell. A real needed and welcome facelift since the CV9040 first entered the game many years ago - Thank you a ton @dejawolf for the update! 2. Small but wonderful detail is that the casings being ejected when firing is now modelled! First I was like "wtf was that coming through my TIS?" when firing in thermal mode, then went to F8 view to see casings falling down, such joy over such a small feature! Love it! /KT 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Retro Posted January 23, 2021 Members Share Posted January 23, 2021 Quite a few vehicles/weapons show that effect now.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewood Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Agreed. Overall, a lot of the vehicles look a lot newer. Maybe its just the lighting, but overall great. I also really like fleshing out the Piranha lines and their armament. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgehog Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) I'd like to see cases / stubs being flung out the loader's hatch when you reload. (Along with my idea of the ready rack variable reload timing.) The MT55 could do with a new model, think it is the oldest one in SB now, along with the ASLAV-PC / CS / Medic (They've been around since SB was mailed to you on a disc.)

I like to see my loader feed the gun and not throw casings out of the hatch, that's why spent casing bins were invented........JK'ing Maybe a action when the :Reload" command in activated, so we can see the loader working (throwing out casings) , and not making coffee.......boiling vessel?..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dejawolf Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 thanks. the CV9040B and CV9040C were some of the first vehicles created for steel beasts pro pe way back in 2006, after the danish leopard 2A5DK and pizarro, and the second real military vehicle i ever got to explore the insides of in person. i remember sitting for the better part of 3 whole days inside the CV9040B troop compartment with my laptop, taking measures, pictures, asking the crew about specific details on the vehicle and modeling the interior.. needless to say, the exterior model was in dire need of a proper update. and yes, the vehicles in general look better now, thanks to a new lighting update that Mike has done. it takes into consideration environment light colour, which makes the vehicles blend in better with the environment. it's sort of primitive PBR. it's not perfect, but a huge step up from the older lighting system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Pretty sure the Pizarro came after the CV90 I remember when the CV90 was 1st released, was a 100mb download, which was large for the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
